And New! Cody Garbrandt Becomes the Second Man to Defeat Dominick Cruz

The bad energy was palpable. After months of trash talk, scuffles, and not-so-veiled threats, Dominick Cruz and Cody Garbrandt were about to throw down. After 20+ minutes, what we saw was Cody Garbrandt enterting the big stage while doing The Robot.

We have a new bantamweight champion, people. Dominick Cruz has finally been dethroned.

Round 1 was Dominick Cruz being Dominick Cruz, but Cody was keen to the champ's game. For every fancy zig Cruz made, Cody moved into a faster zag. Cruz implemented his game well to start, but midway through the second round, Garbrandt started connecting, and hard.
